Their study concluded that 1 in 4 children who don't get the recommended 9 hours of sleep a night suffer depression. Horribly 1 in 5 children transition from depression to a more ailment of suicidal thoughts. Moodiness is one of the side effects of a child that is sleep deprived and often prescribed anti-depression medicine such as Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Celexa, Lexapro and Luvox.
